Wide receiver play has not been a strong suit for the Arizona Cardinals so far this year at training camp, and Tyrann Mathieu has his theory as to why.Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians took to the press on Monday to rip his receivers for their sorry showing at camp.“I must’ve been seeing things back in the spring when I said we had 12 guys who could play in the NFL,” said Arians...
